Exceptional Breakfast: The breakfast received consistent praise for its variety, quality, and early service hours, making it convenient for early travelers. Items like salmon and the bright, glass-roofed dining area were highlighted as standout features.

Perfect location and cozy room. A bit of a walk to my room, but it was quiet and comfortable. Friendly staff and great breakfast made the stay really nice.

Definitely a busier part of town but we enjoyed being in the middle of it. Could see and hear the water fountains in the park from window. There is a little second level perch/balcony which was amazing to sit at during the evening sun while sipping some of the delicious white wine provided by hotel. Easy walk to the train stations and overall great location for walking to all of the places we wanted to go to. Beds were very comfortable and we had excellent sleep! Morning breakfast was amazing and had a very nice ambiance! I can’t believe the fresh juice station and health shots…America needs to step up the game as far as hotel breakfasts.

Stayed together under separate bookings and we all enjoyed our time at Karl Johan. Couldn’t ask for better location, service, and breakfast! Will be back if I’m in Oslo.

The hotel is located at the Western end of the Karl Johnson street /belt, about 8 to 10 minutes from the Olso central train station. It is nearer to the Royal Palace and the Akershus Festning (fortress) and further away from the Oslo Opera house. The restaurant only open for breakfast and do not serve dinner. Still, there are many restaurants and convenience stores within walking distance. Check-in is efficient as with all Norway hotels. The breakfast is excellent, although the selections remain the same. Overall, it is a good hotel to stay in Oslo.
